Let us split your life into decades. Each of the decades is a beautiful period in your life. The main point is to live it in a healthy way.
Here is a list of food you should eat…:
1. … in your 20’s
Dairy products are essential for people in their 20’s. This is when your body cells need energy to help you stay active and strong. Your bones are still growing and developing. If you are still under your 30’s, then you need more calcium in your menu (1,000 mg is your daily dose). Get it from yogurt or supplements if you are allergic to milk products. No artificial flavors and preservatives, of course!
Eggs are another food that you need to eat when you are in your 20’s. The whites of the eggs are pure protein. This protein is lean. The yolks are great too – they are rich in fats and vitamins. You can eat fish like tuna or salmon if you do not like eggs. The only minus of tuna is that this fish contains too much mercury – one of the elements that are toxic. Eat tuna in moderation.
2. … in your 30’s
Now that you’ve lived 30 years, you need to reconsider your current diet and make it more varied. Include beans. This sort of food provides your body with plant-based protein. They are rich in folate – an element necessary for pregnant women. Try out different species and remember to eat black beans. Folate can also be found in other products like dark leafy greens and nuts as well as asparagus and avocado.
Flax seeds have been gaining popularity at a tremendous speed. More and more people under their 40’s consume this product on a regular basis. Although these seeds lack flavor, they have lots of health benefits. They have plenty of omega-3 fatty acids and prevent arthritis. Another great choice would be chia seeds. From time to time you should eat sunflower seeds. Omega-3 fatty acids are found in anchovies too.
